What I review

A complete look at what is holding you back.

Most firms have a handful of issues quietly capping their growth. An expert audit finds them and tells you which ones to fix first.

Technical SEO

Crawlability, indexation, site architecture, Core Web Vitals, and the technical issues quietly holding your rankings back.

On-page & content

Title tags, headings, internal links, and whether your practice area pages actually match what clients search for.

Local SEO & Google Business Profile

Your map pack visibility, GBP optimization, citation consistency, and reviews across the locations you serve.

GEO & AI visibility

Whether ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews can find and cite your firm, and what to fix so they do.

Authority & backlinks

Your link profile, brand mentions, and the authority gaps between you and the firms outranking you.

Conversion & intake

Whether the traffic you do earn turns into signed cases, from page messaging to calls to action.

How it works

A roadmap, not a 90 page export.

1. Discovery

I learn your market, your best case types, and the competitors you want to overtake.

2. The audit

I review your site, Google Business Profile, analytics, and search data against every factor above.

3. The roadmap

You get a prioritized action plan, not a 90 page export. The highest-leverage fixes come first.

4. The walkthrough

We talk through the findings so you and your team know exactly what to do and why it matters.

Who an SEO audit is for

An expert SEO audit makes the most sense when your personal injury firm is already investing in your website and you want to know whether that investment is working. If you are spending on content or an agency and not seeing more of the cases you want, an audit shows you where the money is leaking.

It is also the right first step before a larger engagement. Many firms start with an audit, then move into 1-on-1 consulting or fractional CMO leadership to execute the roadmap. If you would rather learn the frameworks and run the fixes yourself, my online training covers the same ground.

Wondering whether an agency should be doing this for you instead? My guide to the best law firm SEO agencies walks through how to choose one and what good work looks like.

Sound familiar?

The problems I hear from PI firms.

Marketing's working, intake's working, everything's cruising. But we had to question it.
How I help

I run audits that challenge assumptions with data: channel performance, intake conversion, missed calls, and lead outcomes.

I need to know what's actually driving cases, not just clicks.
How I help

I check your tracking and attribution, from call and form tracking to CRM source hygiene, so you see source of case, not just traffic.

I'm not a fan of wasting marketing dollars if I'm not closing the leads I'm getting.
How I help

Before recommending more budget, I diagnose intake leaks: speed to lead, routing, follow up. See my lead intake alignment.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is a law firm SEO audit?
A law firm SEO audit is a structured review of everything affecting your search visibility: technical health, on-page content, local SEO and Google Business Profile, authority and backlinks, AI visibility, and how well your site converts visitors into signed cases. The goal is a clear, prioritized list of what to fix first.
How much does an SEO audit for a law firm cost?
It depends on the size of your site and the number of locations you serve. I scope every audit to the firm. The point is a return: the fixes a good audit surfaces typically pay for the audit many times over. Get in touch for a quote.
How is your audit different from a free automated SEO report?
Automated tools flag hundreds of issues without telling you which ones matter for a law firm in your market. I read the data, weigh it against your competitors and your best case types, and hand you a short list of the changes that will actually move rankings and cases.
Do you audit local SEO and Google Business Profile?
Yes. For most firms the local pack and Google Business Profile drive more cases than anything else, so every audit covers map visibility, GBP optimization, citations, and reviews. See local SEO consulting.
Does the audit cover AI and ChatGPT visibility?
Yes. I check whether AI answer engines can find and cite your firm and what to fix so they do. This is Generative Engine Optimization. Learn more in my GEO for law firms playbook.
What do I get at the end?
A prioritized roadmap of the highest-leverage fixes, plus a walkthrough so you and your team know exactly what to do. If you want help executing it, that can roll into 1-on-1 consulting.
